On certain fire trucks, the inner door handles may have been manufactured incorrectly, which could allow the door to open unexpectedly during vehicle operation. Should a door open while the vehicle is underway, an unbelted occupant could fall from the vehicle and sustain personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the inner door handle and door linkage rod on all cabin doors.
